Hay pulp serves as the fundamental intermediate material for all secondary manufacturing branches in Find The Needle. Mastering pulp production unlocks the ability to manufacture paper sheets, pulp slabs, and eco bricks.

Unlocking and Placing the Pulper

The primary machine responsible for pulp manufacturing is the industrial pulper. Unlock the machine in your technology tree and clear adequate factory floor space.

The pulper requires direct electricity from your power grid. Place power poles close to the unit to ensure uninterrupted operation during large excavation runs.

Pulp Refining Mechanics

Producing pulp is straightforward once logistical lines are established. Feed dry, raw hay directly from your main conveyor spine into the pulper intake.

The machine grinds and moistens the dry fibers into wet pulp slurry and dense pulp slabs. Outbound conveyors then carry the refined pulp onward toward downstream assembly lines.

Routing Pulp to Advanced Manufacturing

Pulp is rarely sold raw at the market stand because downstream products yield vastly superior returns. Split your pulp outflow between paper machines and brick makers to maximize overall warehouse revenue.
